Do's and don'ts please:

A,B and C all damaged, can't be sent. C has been cut do atrt of stamps is cut off.
D,E and F - not enough margins. Modern stamps 'self destruct' in water and so there has to be something to hold onto when an attempt is made to separate stamp from its backing.


G, H, I and J perfect examples. Someone has even realized that J has a special postmark.

Thanks to all.
